morning. He not only depicted in glowing
language the national progress of the past,
in which all Americans take a great deal of
pride, but he also cautioned his congrega-

ways well to look at a question from the
two sides. Mr. Moffat very ably discussed
his theme.

Among the many amusement ventures of
the present season none, perhaps, is mere
worthy Of commendatory notice than that
of Wallace & Co.'s Three-ring Circus and
MenaGerie, which is to be in Lehighton,
to-day Saturday. This entertainment is in
every way creditable to the management,
and is popular with the public wherever Il
goes. The circus department is unexcep-
tionable, and, with large company of
performers, second to none in point Of skin
and capacity, 1t presents many features
that are new. The Menagere contains a
number of living wild animals, which are
seldom exhibited

matter Of no little trouble TO 500 any
distinguishing characteristic, save In
height. That our readers may re able
too see the matter more clearly, We
herewith present the dimensions of tie
Oregon natural bridge: Length. 1917
feet; breadth, !15H feet; height, 6e%
feet; span of arch, 12T feet.
The bridge proper is situated in q
kind of canyon, at the base of beauti-
full and lofty mountain, short distance
from the Unpqua river, on small es-
planade. 1t is quite powerful struc-
ture. and will resist strain Of 10000
bs to the square inch The compost
ton of the bridge is mineral granite,
carrying sulphurets of iron, which en-
tiers largely into that portion called the
arc of arch. The o:her parts of carbon
aceous earth aud hard pan.
The bridge as it stands has the mp.
pemrance of having been constructed by
tue hand of man; the alignments being
beyond the power of the human eye to
detect their imperfections.
The Oregon wonder is situated in the
central part of Douglas county, west
l6X miles from Oakland, on spur of
the Coast range, 2H miles from the
Umpqua river. It is certainly worthy
the attention of scientific minds
throughout our State, and we hope
some of them will soon visit the spot
and let us know how this bridge sprung
into existence.

People who are interested in the Growth
of the city, will read with interest the
report Of the last meeting of the Board
Of Trade. Austin has long ]abored under
disadvantage, with Its present poor
charter. The necessities Of the time de-
manded an entirely new charter. This
has been provided. and we believe will
prove to be entirely satisfactory. It
gives to the council certain powers which
they must have, if they wish to make
any improvements, The time has come
when improvements must be made; the
new charter is the first step. With new
charter, new organizations, new
methods. new vigor and new hope, Austin
will begin period of such activity and
prosperity as to make it one Of the
largest cities in the state, within short

BUILDING ASSOCIATION.

There is one feature Of the association
which should attract the attention of
everyone. That is, the advantages it
offers as 3 savings institution. Any one
who can pay 50 cents per month, can
take share. It will readily be seen
that this will be an inducement to people
of small means toinvest their money.
1t not only enables people to obtain
homes, but also enables them to invest
small amounts, monthly, in stock which
will pay them good return. This is
no experiment, but is q plan that has
been tried foryears. These organizations
have been formed in all Of the northern
states, and have successfully proven
their efficiency. They have been tried in
this state, and. as q savings Institution
alone, have clearly demonstrated their
usefulness. The people should accept
